Nice intro, I’ll dig in a bit deeper.

I like this. Reminds me vaguely of the introduction to Ender’s Game.

Hooray! Vanessa and I are glad you’re enjoying SLB.

FWIW, Triptych mission isn’t to recruit teens with special abilities. They’re equal opportunity. People of all ages are equally preyed upon. Heh.

Since you like critizism.
First up, nice job. I normally don’t read stuff on the internet (I like webcomics and reading books, but reading realms of text on the net isn’t my forte) but I still read through this and am interested in reading more. Nice job at fluidity and making your text easy to get into.

My impressions is that you’re going for the trope of an organisation that recruits teenagers with special abilities. Either to genuinely help them develop, or in your case, use them for their own ends. I’m generally put off when it seems a cliché is something the narrative gives us straight away, but for me it’s a cliché that’s not without appeal (as long as its written well), so I’m going along with it for now.
